some control

A human who can 
control themselves 

Is one of nature's 
tiny marvels. See, 
somehow
they do 
what they
wouldn't, or
they don't do what 
they would. Now

to me, 
how the hell
would I know 
what I wouldn't?
I wouldn't 
do it!

And why would I do 
it? 

Conversely, what I would
do, I know that every time. 
However, I do it! 

I mean, aim is control. 
Control isn't all restraint, 
but self-control is a 

little marvel, when you see 
someone do it. It's just of a 
stop, step-back hitch, or a 
plow forward past. And 

you're like oh wow, how'd 
you do that? I thought you 
wouldn't, or - you'd do the 
other 
thing
good 
job
